2 weeks. 2WEEKS HAS PASSED SINCE THE FUNERAL. he hasn't texted me yet. He's probably busy. But I said talk to u again and he said sure. Then why did he ghost me. Ugh I'm overthinking, he probably just doesn't want to talk anymore. Like yeah who am I to him? A stranger . Ofc . But okay. I should just stop thinking about it. It hurts though. But why does it hurt?
Ugh I need coffee. A nice coffee.

So I went to the café to get my coffee. They have the best coffee Istg. Anyway, I got my usual order and I sat by the out side view seat. It felt great getting coffee into my system after like what? Almost 20 days? Idk. I stopped coffee because of anxiety. My anxiety is quite dangerous so yeah. But no one can detach me from coffee so anyway. I was drinking coffee watching the view and getting into my own world . Suddenly, someone put their coffee cup beside me and I saw a familiar hand . Guess what? ....Yeonjun.... *sigh*

"Hiii, Rein! How are you?"

"Oh hi nice to see you again. I'm fine . How have you been? Wow you still seem to remember me." I said with a forced smile.

"Nothing much. Its nice I guess. Oh I'm sorry I forgot to text you. I wanted to talk to you but you see I've been doing night shifts too and also I didn't know like how I should actually start a convo lol. Texting is hard for me. And ofc I remember you, how can I forget."

GOD I'M A JERK. Why did I think he ghosted me. Poor boy was busy and nervous to text me? What the heck am I even thinking.

"Its ok , it's ok."

"My house is pretty near . So I come here often."

"Nice that's good. I also come here sometimes. It's been a long week and I just needed a boost . So I came here to drink some coffee."

"Fr tho. Coffee gives that little boost to Ur daily life. I can't live without coffee lol." He said.

"Yes you're right. Btw where do u work?"

"I work in my dad's business company. Even tho I never wanted to.You know I want to be a K-pop idol fr. But I'm scared I won't get through the audition.Sorry this thought is just bothering me lately..I thought Sharing it will be nice."

"Its ok. Really ok. You should Audition. Worth a try ryt? Cause look it's your dream. If u Don't even try and just give up like what's the point of having a dream even? And even if u get rejected at least you tried . Trying matters and your singing is amazing anyway don't be scared. Give a shot for Hybe."

"Hmm you're right. Thanks. I will definitely audition."

"Oh yeah listen, an audition for bighit is going on. You should give it a try."

"Sure I will try. Thank you once again. And you? Where do you work?"

"Yea definitely. Oh yes and I'm a makeup artist/ stylist at Hybe."

"That's a cool job. Feels like dream sometimes right? Talking with famous people and all."he said with a light chuckle.

"Sometimes. Lol" I said with a playful eye roll.

"Gotta catch up on some work. See u again? And yea I'll text u Dw."

"Sure. Bye!"

He turned back , smiled and waved at me.

Is he really gonna Audition? I caught myself smiling like an idiot. If he auditions then i will feel so happy. Because he tried at least.

--------
He texted. FINALLY.

On text:

"Going to audition today"

"Best of luck , be confident and positive!"

"Sure I will be"

I again catch myself smiling. *Calm down calm down* I said to myself .


It's been 1 month since he did the audition. We've been texting too. He will let me know whether he gets in or not.

On text :
"Hi...I didn't get in :("

"Uhhh it's ok. Try again next time. I'll be better trust me. And at least you tried ryt? And be strong."

"I guess so."

"Are you okay?"

"I am don't worryyy."

"Okay then. If u want to meet sometime then text me alright?"

"Surely."

I feel so sad for him. I believed in him. Its not like he doesn't have talent. His voice is so good. Idk why he didn't get in.

I was just wandering around Hybe building and suddenly Jenn ( Our manager) said : "hey I just heard a new soloist is coming and you're gonna be his makeup artist. He's gonna shoot his MV on 24 October."

"Oh nice. There's still so much time"

"Yea I have To go byeee"

"Bye Jenn!"

I came home and started to think about Yeonjun. How is he? I haven't talked to him since he said he got rejected. I guess he needs time. No idol is gonna have a comeback in 2 months. Uhhh... I'm gonna chill. Finally peace.
